[or-roots] Sons & Daughters of Oregon Pioneers

[LAPowell at aol.com]

For the "Newbies"
Since the subject came up: 
 
If you can provide some type of proof that your ancestor was living in  
Oregon BEFORE the date of statehood (14 Feb 1859) you are eligible to join  SDOP.  
Proof can be almost any historical document.  Most people use  the Donation 
Land Claim number for their ancestor. When I started I contacted  the 
Genealogical Forum in Portland, OR/  But there seem to be copies  floating around other 
libraries, etc.    Application forms can be  obtained from the organization.   
 
Check out the websites   They were helpful to us older members when we  were 
searching. 
 
Stephanie Flora's   "Oregon Pioneers"
 
Just type "Sons & Daughters of Oregon Pioneers" in the search line and  it 
will bring up several different sites.
